As mentioned at CityTV’s Summer in the Square, and as part of a Gord Martineau-helmed Yannick Bisson interview, Murdoch Mysteries will go into its fifth season on CityTV. Shooting begins in July 2011, and will finish December 2011.

The futures of The Drunk and on Drugs Happy Funtime Hour and Kenny Hotz’s Triumph of the Will are unknown. The shows are mentioned in the Shaw Media press materials, but aren’t given a fixed airdate. Bomb Girls and Titanic have dedicated entries, and Kenny Hotz’s show is listed as Triumph of Will.

As for Bomb Girls, the six-part series of hour-long episodes will air on Global winter 2012. Titanic, a four-part miniseries of hour-long episodes, makes its Global run spring 2012.

Shaw publicists are keeping mum about The Drunk and on Drugs Happy Funtime Hour and Kenny Hotz’s Triumph of the Will, at least publicly. Last year, I reported that the show would debut winter 2011. I assumed Showcase was saving the two shows for fall 2011, but now I have no idea what the hell is going on. To quote that great orator Krusty the Clown, “what is the freaking holdup?” Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to haul ass to Lollapalooza!

We love the series, however the constant narration in this year’s films is very annoying! So much so that we are seriously considering not watching it anymore. You can see what is happening -what is the point of it? Thank you.
